Hmm i consider Move as something similar to arcade stick- periphery that can enhance gameplay in certain genres- strategy, srpg, rts, shooters.
PS. And I always wanted to have light gun :)

Kinect
Why I'm into it:
- Because the concept is so awesome! From the voice recognition to the tech demo of Milo that wowed us all
- The dance game looks really fun, so does the adventure one
- If the potential is exploited it can be great!
Why I'm not into it and have decided NOT to get a 360 for it:
- Its way too expensive
- Reports from the media and videos actually don't make the kinect look fun APART from the Dance game. The harry potter game looks like a mess quite frankly.
- So far it seems that no-one has exploited its potential, all the games on it seem like minigames, there's no "real thing" on it right now
- Just using your HAND and BODy as a controller makes me question the kind of depth in gameplay some games could have on Kinect.

PlayStation MOVE
Why I'm into it:
- SONY have gone with the aim of making hardcore gamers like motion controls, I have FULL FAITH in them to produce top notch games for it
- So far a few games looks very nice, those being sorcery, a rpg that was announced yesterday and ninokuni.
- The coloured ball could lead to some cool ideas and innovations being implemented
- Its motion controls with PS3 level graphics!
Why I'm not into it and won't be buying it till Sorcery comes out:
- None of the launch game looks at all better than anything on the Wii right now so why should I buy it? For Move Sports? Hell effing no!
While I'm slightly interested in Kinect, I'm not willing to buy a 360 in order to experience it
As for Move, I'm quite interested, but there are no games that make we want to go out a grab one, maybe Sorcery could be that game

The Kinect: Unlike everyone else I don't see the potential in the tech (gaming perspective), everything I've seen that's been done so far, I saw something similar back when I had the Eye Toy. Unless Microsoft can develop a fantastic title that doesn't resolve around flailing your body, then I won't be buying Kinect. It's also $200 in Australia and that's $150 to much.
The Move: Time Crisis: Razing Storm, Dead Space: Extraction, The Shoot and (maybe) Sorcery. I'd also be interested in trying it out on the upcoming games I'm purchasing like Killzone 3, SOCOM 4 and (maybe) Lord of the Ring's: Aragorn's Quest (LOTR nerd). The controller comes at a sweet price of $50 and I have everything else set to go and I might buy a second controller some time down the line.
Overall I couldn't give a shit about the hardware, I care about what I can actually play and not what I could possibly play some time in the future and right now Sony are offering me several titles that I'm very excited for and my lust for light gun shooters is being reinvigorated.
Bet with Conegamer and AussieGecko that the PS3 will have more exclusives in 2011 than the Wii or 360... or something.

I'm disappointed, I thought you were a JRPG fan!
Famitsu said it will have MOVE support!
I don't care about Kinect, it's nice tech that's all, but like the whole console, it has too little games I'm interested in. It's just my tastes, the games definitely are good but just not for me.
Anyway, as for Move, I'm pretty excited about it. I was pretty excited about Wii too, when it came out, but in the end, it got no interesting games that really took advantege of the controller. Move, however, seems more accurate and even many core games support it. Also, I'm a huge fan of PC gaming and one of the reasons for that is superior controls is terms of speed and accuracy. I expect the gap in accuracy to become smaller with the release of Move, as it seems to able to handle many things in a similar way as a mouse. To me, it will make console shooters more enjoyable. I also look forward to console strategy games, Move makes them much easier to control.
And it doesn't cost too much either. I think I can get the starter pack for less than 50€ here in Finland.
For me I will be getting Move at launch, simply because $50 is such an easy impulse purchase, and I already have a compatible game, Resident Evil 5. I'm sure they'll post the demos on PSN too.
I'm really interested in playing FPS with Move. I've tried out Time Crisis, the arcade shooter, and I was literally pulling off headshot after headshot in seconds.
If Move is good, I'll get another controller too, and buy more games. If it's not good, it's only $50.
Kinect, on the other hand, is a bit too much of a gamble for me. $150 is into the realms of "I could buy a lot with this money" rather than "impulse buy", and the launch lineup doesn't appeal to me at all. Dance Central looks good, but it isn't the kind of game that I would spend $150-$200 on. People keep talking about Kinect's potential, and I'm excited by its potential too, but at $150 I'm going to wait for that potential to realise itself before committing to a purchase. By the time Kinect goes hardcore, it'll probably be discounted too... everybody wins

You took the words right out of my mouth
End of 2012 prediction:
xbox 360 : 73-75 million
playstation 3 : 72-74 million
wii : 104-105 million 
Most hyped for :
Bioshock: infinte, The Last Of Us, Alan Wake's American Nightmare and Agent
Kinect seems like a way to get the whole family gaming and consuming media on the Xbox. Auto-login with face recognition, voice control, and no controllers seems like it will eliminate all the barriers to entry to non-gamers. The more family friendly game content also seems like a smart way to not alienate and offend non-gamers.
Move seems like a way to get hardcore gamers to waste money on a slew of peripherals they won't end up using because they can't compete with the dualshock. Could be wrong but I just don't see regular people getting excited about Move games or controlling the XMB with the Move controller. The Move games look very generic and bland to me compared to the Kinect lineup.
